To answer the question of whether there is any kind of material that, when placed between the plates of a capacitor, reduces its capacitance, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Capacitance**: - Capacitance (C) of a capacitor is defined as the ability of the capacitor to store charge per unit voltage. The formula for capacitance is given by: \[ C = \frac{\varepsilon A}{d} ...
